Description
A touching tour that combines history, personal experiences, and social change. It shows familiar places in a new light – moving, thoughtful, and surprisingly different.
Experience the Advent season in Graz in a special, personal way. This tour combines festive history with insights from your own experience: Together with a guide, you'll explore the city's Christmas-lit streets, quiet monastery courtyards, and historic squares.
You'll learn, among other things, where Advent comes from, how Christmas was celebrated 200 years ago in the imperial house in Vienna, and how the Christmas tree found its way into Catholic Austria.
The tour isn't just about history and legends; it's also about being seen, about moving forward despite everything, and about what Christmas can mean today. Honest, quiet, and approachable – for those who want to not only see Christmas, but feel it, and are open to new perspectives between the lines of the city.
